Having seen Russell Howard on Mock the Week numerous times I thought I would take the plunge and see how his own material matched up. I was not disappointed.
The crowd were already well into the swing of things due to his excellent support act but once the main act was in full flow there wasn't a glum face in the house. His material was a wee bit more edgy than on the telly but he never used this to make up for any lack of intelligence in his humour.
The night was made even better by the impromptu meet and great set up in the lobby after the gig where I got to meet Russell to have a small chat and nab a photo of the man himself. All in a great nights entertainment and I look forward to seeing his career develop.
